h4Chapter 1105: Chapter 1099: Heading to the Lu Family/h4

    In the morning, when the first ray of sunlight rose from the horizon, the previously dimly lit room became bright.

    Last night, Lu Tianxing did not have any delightful encounters with Bai Zhiqing, because today a great battle awaited him, so he needed to conserve his energy to face today’s events.

    At this moment, Lu Tianxing had woken up early, lying on his back on the bed, quietly staring at the ceiling in a daze, pondering about going to the Lu Family today.

    Bai Zhiqing, on the other hand, was curled up in Lu Tianxing’s arms like a little kitten, sprawled over him, her ample Holy Maiden Peak pressed against his arm, and a slender leg resting unceremoniously on him. A faint smile graced the corners of her mouth, as if she were having a sweet dream.

    After some time, as the sunlight outside the window grew increasingly brighter, Lu Tianxing came back to his senses and gently stroked Bai Zhiqing’s hair with tenderness. Originally, this woman didn’t need to worry about him, yet she willingly came to Suzhou for his sake.

    Taking a deep breath, Lu Tianxing silently told himself that no matter what, he would never let this woman suffer any grievances in this lifetime.

    Evidently sensing Lu Tianxing’s gaze, Bai Zhiqing’s eyshes fluttered lightly, and she groggily opened her eyes, immediately seeing Lu Tianxing gazing at her with tenderness.

    This discovery made Bai Zhiqing instantly alert, and she smiled slightly: "Why are you looking at me like that, is there a flower on my face?"

    "No flowers, but you are more beautiful than them." Lu Tianxing said with a smile.

    "Sweet talker."

    Bai Zhiqing rolled her eyes at Lu Tianxing, but her face lit up with a brilliant smile, seemingly very receptive to hispliment.

    "Honey, if you want to know if I’m sweet-talking, why not have a taste." Lu Tianxing said with a cheeky grin as he looked at Bai Zhiqing.

    Saying this, Lu Tianxing leaned towards Bai Zhiqing’s red lips, kissing her before she could react.

    Only when Bai Zhiqing was out of breath did Lu Tianxing let go of her, gazing at her watery eyes and flushed cheeks with a smug smile on his face. He couldn’t believe he had managed to win over Bai Zhiqing, this beautiful flower.

    "Lu Tianxing, you jerk, aren’t you going to get up quickly? Have you forgotten what you need to do today?"

    Bai Zhiqing feigned a stern look at Lu Tianxing as she struggled to get out of his embrace.

    Seeing Bai Zhiqing’s appearance, Lu Tianxing didn’t make any further excessive moves and also got out of bed, changing his clothes right in front of Bai Zhiqing.

    Bai Zhiqing shot Lu Tianxing an irritated nce, got up from the bed in her pajamas, and turned to the bathroom.

    Lu Tianxing nced at Bai Zhiqing, quickly dressed, and called out to her in the bathroom: "Honey, I’m going to call the front desk to bring us some breakfast."

    "Okay."

    Bai Zhiqing’s voice came from the bathroom, and seeing her flushed face in the mirror, she smiled softly. nning to change clothes, she seemed to recall something, exited the bathroom again, and went to choose her outfit from her luggage.

    Lu Tianxing sat on the sofa outside, having ordered breakfast from the hotel front desk. He sat there bored, knowing that, usually, while Bai Zhiqing took less time to get ready than other women, it would still take at least ten minutes.

    Minute by minute passed, and nearly half an hour went by before the bedroom door slowly opened.

    Hearing the door open, Lu Tianxing looked up at the entrance. Seeing Bai Zhiqing’s attire, his eyes immediately lit up with amazement.

    Bai Zhiqing was wearing a purple cheongsam, exuding an intimidating aura. Her perfect figure was perfectly highlighted, and as she walked, a long, beautiful leg appeared intermittently, attracting attention.

    Bai Zhiqing’s hair was styled in a fashionable and elegant manner thatplemented the cheongsam, showcasing her full charisma—a noble, elegant, and proud aura emanated from her.

    As she walked out of the room, it seemed as if the whole world had only her in it. Despite being ustomed to Bai Zhiqing’s outfits and having been intimately close, Lu Tianxing couldn’t help but be mesmerized by her appearance once more.

    Seeing Lu Tianxing’s stunned reaction, Bai Zhiqing showed a satisfied smile. This was exactly the effect she wanted.

    "Honey, you..."

    "How do I look, satisfied?"

    Bai Zhiqing twirled in front of Lu Tianxing, smiling: "Since this is your first return to the Lu Family, as your wife, I must uphold your pride and prevent anyone from looking down on you."

    "Hehe, it’s good that you’re so considerate, wife."

    Lu Tianxing chuckled, embraced Bai Zhiqing in his arms, and then opened the breakfast delivered by the room service, allowing the steaming aroma to fill the room.

    After a simple breakfast, Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing didn’t linger at the hotel and headed straight out of their room.

    Just as they exited the hotel, Lu Tianxing immediately saw Elder Zhou waiting outside the hotel, apanied by a few elders, each exuding a powerful aura. Their eyes shone brightly, indicating their great reserves of True Qi as martial artists.

    "Mr. Lu, you’re out."

    Seeing Lu Tianxinge out, Zhou Chengtian immediately approached.

    "Old Master Zhou, I’ve exined everything to you. Zhiqing wants to apany me to the Lu Family today. I’ll need your protection for her." Lu Tianxing nodded towards Zhou Chengtian.

    "Mr. Lu, you’re too polite. Today, I’ve brought several offerings from the Zhou Family to ensure Miss Bai’s safety."

    Elder Zhou’s expression was solemn, his aged face showing a heavy look. From the moment he woke up today, he could sense the scent of gunpowder in the air and a gathering storm feeling surging in his heart. He knew very well that this battle would determine the Zhou Family’s future. If Lu Tianxing won, as long as he didn’t die, the Zhou Family would face no threat of destruction in Suzhou. If Lu Tianxing lost, the blow to the Zhou Family wouldn’t be too great initially, but they would inevitably face extinction within several decades.

    "Thank you, Elder Zhou."

    Lu Tianxing didn’t say anything superfluous and waved, getting into the car with Bai Zhiqing.

    Elder Zhou didn’t say anything, personally sitting in the driver’s seat, while the silent elders behind them got into the car following behind. The two cars headed towards the Lu Family Mansion, one after the other.

    Just as Lu Tianxing left the hotel, several hidden eyes in the dark revealed their murderous intent. They all pulled out their phones from their pockets and sent a message, then vanished like venomous snakes hidden in the shadows.

    Lu Tianxing was finally heading to the Lu Family. This journey was destined not to be peaceful and certain to be bathed in blood.

    PS: There’s still a month and a half until the New Year. I’m afraid I won’t have time to write and update regrly then, so updates will slow down for now, with a minimum of two updates. Once I have enough drafts, regr updates will resume!
